Hey everyone! My name is AD Mohanraj and I'm currently a junior at UC Berkeley majoring in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. This is my second year of chairing conferences, I also did MUN as a delegate for two years in high school. Last year at at BMUN 66, I chaired the Joint Crisis Committee simulating US-China relations. At the end of January 2019, I'll also be chairing the World Bank at SCVMUN. In my free time, I enjoy working on programming projects and playing soccer. Last fall, I participated in a study abroad program in Sweden, where I took Computer Science courses at Lund University. I'm looking forward to meeting everyone in March!

Diplomatic scuffle over Kashmir

Dear Delegates, For this week, I am posting a few of inter-related articles about the Kashmir issue. President Arif Alvi is the current president of Pakistan and it is interesting to see what the newly formed government in Pakistan's stance on the Kashmir issue is. This article is from a Pakistani newspaper so read it with a grain of salt. President Alvi demands Indian govt upholds rights of Kashmiri people https://www.dawn.com/news/1461965 The following two articles are about the conference organized in London on Kashmir Solidarity Day by Pakistan. It is interesting to see how the two countries frame the conference.
